Water planes version 1.0 is a newly-orefered digital file of stagnant surface waters in Flanders. The file, built up by combination of existing topographic chart layers, orthophoto images and the digital terrain model Flanders version II, comprises 86,026 polygons with a size between 1.45 m² and 2.4 km² and can be considered the most complete representation of still waters currently available for the Flemish territory. In this sense, it can be used for a wide range of applications in research, policy preparation and implementation in which the spread and characteristics of stagnant waters play a role. ‘Water surfaces’ shall also provide a unique reference for the further data management of such water bodies.
